This book, sub-titled "The Tribulation", is the second in "The Context: Forsaken Histories and Prophesies" trilogy; a trilogy endeavoring to contextualize global history using African antiquity and ancient history as a central nexus. An approach illuminating African antiquity and lending contextual perspective to the emergent cultures and histories of the surrounding lands and continents. The first book of the trilogy, sub-titled "End of the Beginning" covers the period from the (Ice Age) "Dawn of the Age of Man" to the (Early Holocene) end of the Ausarian Age. This, the second book, sub-titled "The Tribulation" covers the subsequent era from the Age of Horus(approximately 8,000 B.C.) to the fall of the Moors at Granda (1,453 AD), final vestige of the last great African empire.

Just as there has been much done to disclaim the African heritage of Khemet (Egypt), there has been much done to obfuscate and disclaim the African heritage of Atlatia (Plato's Atlantis). Plato first introduced Atlantis in the Timaeus, a monologue of Timaeus of Locri, a character who appears as a philosopher and a wealthy aristocrat from the Greek colony of Lokroi Epizephyrio. The primary sources for the Greek (and thereby European and "Western") version and stories of Atlantis are Plato's dialogues (Timaeus and Critias) which claim to quote Solon, an Athenian statesman who visited Khemet (Egypt) between 590 and 580 BC; dialogues which profess Solon translated Egyptian records of Atlantis. Based on the priest's timeline (and Plato's given chronology of 9600 BC), Atlantis is placed in the 10th millennium BC at the beginning of the transition from the Paleolithic to the Neolithic via the interim Mesolithic. Plato did with Atlantis just as Homer did with Troy a few hundred years earlier. He based his story of Atlantis on a real setting and a prehistoric civilization known to ancient Greeks. Modern scholarship tends to dismiss Timaeus's history, considering him a literary construct by Plato, opining that the legend of Atlantis was almost certainly invented by Plato to promote the political ideal of his masterwork. To deny Atlatia (Plato's Atlantis) is to deny an important and significant part of African pre-history and heritage. Ancient Atlatia (Plato's Atlantis) emerged from a specific amalgamation of peoples in the post Ice Age Sahara;, a core group native to the central Sahara, and a related miscegenated group in the western Sahara.

Before history became legend and legend became myth, the oral traditions of what is presently referred to as "Pre-History" were maintained for thousands of years, preserved and handed down throughout the generations since the dawn of the "Age of Man". Throughout the ages, through myth, allegory, parables, iconography and symbolism, the fragmented remains of ancient beliefs have preserved down to the present day; such are the tales in Mythos: The Prescient Kings
